First of all, as regards the ham radio world: it will be, in absolute terms, the first radio "activation" of the vessel. Secondly, we must also consider that the history of Williamsburg and what it represents, particularly in the U.S., will allow us to create an event that, properly managed by the communication point of view,could have considerable resonance in environments outside the amateur radio . In the next few pages we retrace the milestones in the history of Williamsburg, to better understand its importance. Williamsburg – The Story 1931 – Launched with the name ARAS II Williamsburg - The Story 1941 – Acquired by the Navy and renamed “USS Williamsburg ” (PG - 56) Williamsburg - The Story With the acquisition by the U.S. Navy, the Williamsburg was equipped with weapons (guns and machine guns) and called PG-56 (Patrol Gunboat, patrol or armed, or corvette). During the Second World War it was used initially in Europe(especially Iceland, Ireland and the North Sea), and later in NewYork, Florida and also in Guantanamo Bay (Cuba).

  • Navy and Coast Guard Ships Associated with Service in Vietnam and Exposure to Herbicide Agents
    Navy and Coast Guard Ships Associated with Service in Vietnam and Exposure to Herbicide Agents Background This ships list is intended to provide VA regional offices with a resource for determining whether a particular US Navy or Coast Guard Veteran of the Vietnam era is eligible for the presumption of Agent Orange herbicide exposure based on operations of the Veteran’s ship. According to 38 CFR § 3.307(a)(6)(iii), eligibility for the presumption of Agent Orange exposure requires that a Veteran’s military service involved “duty or visitation in the Republic of Vietnam” between January 9, 1962 and May 7, 1975. This includes service within the country of Vietnam itself or aboard a ship that operated on the inland waterways of Vietnam. However, this does not include service aboard a large ocean- going ship that operated only on the offshore waters of Vietnam, unless evidence shows that a Veteran went ashore. Inland waterways include rivers, canals, estuaries, and deltas. They do not include open deep-water bays and harbors such as those at Da Nang Harbor, Qui Nhon Bay Harbor, Nha Trang Harbor, Cam Ranh Bay Harbor, Vung Tau Harbor, or Ganh Rai Bay. These are considered to be part of the offshore waters of Vietnam because of their deep-water anchorage capabilities and open access to the South China Sea. In order to promote consistent application of the term “inland waterways”, VA has determined that Ganh Rai Bay and Qui Nhon Bay Harbor are no longer considered to be inland waterways, but rather are considered open water bays.

  • Sports and Recreation
    A Guide to Historical Holdings In the Dwight D. Eisenhower Library SPORTS AND RECREATION Compiled by Herbert Pankratz November 2006 INTRODUCTION Materials in the Dwight D. Eisenhower Library relating to sports and recreation constitute a largely untapped resource. This special guide has been prepared to assist potential researchers in identifying pertinent primary source materials on this subject area. The guide should not be considered definitive, as the search for pertinent materials was conducted primarily at the folder title level. Most of the materials I surveyed fall into two categories—Eisenhower’s personal involvement in sports and recreation and public policies and programs which affected sports and recreation on a national level. Following World War II, increased economic prosperity, population growth, and more leisure time led to a rapid rise in public use of outdoor recreational facilities. Various government agencies sought to accommodate the increasing numbers of tourists. Annual visits to national forests increased from 27 million in 1950 to 122 million by 1963. In 1957, the Forest Service began Operation Outdoors, a five-year program to improve and expand recreational facilities in national forests. The National Park Service responded to the challenge with Mission 66, a ten-year program designed to upgrade recreational facilities in our national parks. The Park Service also undertook some significant surveys or studies of recreational areas in the U.S. from 1955 to 1960. Congress passed legislation to encourage the development of recreational facilities. The Recreation and Public Purposes Act of 1956 (HR 1815I) permitted the sale or lease of federal lands for recreational purposes.

    DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER LIBRARY ABILENE, KANSAS EDWARD L. BEACH AND EVAN P. AURAND RECORDS 1953-1961 Pre Accession and A67-18 Processed by: HLP, LKS Date Completed: 3-29-83 SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE The records of the Office of the Naval Aide to the President span the years 1953 to 1961 and include the terms of two naval aides, Edward L. Beach (1953-1957) and Evan P. Aurand (1957-1961). About 60 per cent of the material is related to presidential trips and vacations, and this material tends to concentrate on matters of administrative detail and physical arrangement rather than matters of substance. These records are organized into five series. The first series is divided evenly into two subseries, one on the President's international trips and one on his domestic vacations and travels. The trips are arranged chronologically within each subseries, and the information on each trip is arranged either chronologically or topically. The bulk of this series consists of correspondence, including many classified naval messages and telegrams, briefing books, reports, schedules and itineraries, maps and diagrams, personnel and passenger lists, and printed logs of some trips. While there is only a small quantity of information on matters of policy and substance, detailed information on advance reparation for and the logistics of presidential travel are available in abundance in this series. The naval aide's office apparently served as a clearinghouse for routing requests and coordinating any Administration needs for Navy or Marine personnel or equipment. These needs could vary from a cook for Camp David to a heavy cruiser or aircraft carrier for a presidential cruise.
